Prayers needed...

My niece would like to celebrate her second birthday in two weeks, but has contracted E Coli. She has been on morphine every two hours since sunday for the pain, and was just taken off because her little kidney beans are failing now. She will be under going kidney dialysis for the next two weeks at childrens hospital, and then, godspeed, recovery.

Please send a little extra prayer Ella's way as you hug the loved ones.

Thank You, Joe

Best Wishes and Prayers for a full recovery. My nephew had the same thing happen 2 years ago when he was seven. Hospitals, dialysis, the works. His kidney's are still not 100%, but doing well.

My wife and I went through this 20 years ago with our son. He was 4. At the time there had been four cases in the Minnesota and they lost the first two. We were devastated. He had the same symptoms that you described. He was rushed from Silver Bay Clinic to St. Mary's hospital in Duluth. After less than 40 minutes there he was rushed to Children's Hospital in Mpls.

His kidneys shut down, he was on dialysis, and in intensive care. The reason that I'm telling you all of this is that he's now 23 and in perfect health. They know what they're doing. It is very scary but survivable. I will never forget that time. God's speed.

    • Yeah it was a beatdown
    • Your kid needs to stay with him!👍
    • My kid was eating in Beverly Hills and ran into this guy. Talked to him a bit and wished him luck in the game tonight.     
    • 🤔as a recovering machinist!🤣🤣that must make me a recovering welder!
    • As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…
    • I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...
    • Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?
    • I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.
    • You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.   
    • Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
